Recharge Rituals: the Feminine Power of “Daily Downshifting” – Episode #8
Recharge Rituals: The Feminine Power of Daily Downshifting – you’ll love this new way of ending your day, hours before you ever climb into bed
Daily, your body needs to recharge. Your mind needs to rest. Your spirit to restore. But 8 hours of sleep a night won’t do it. The yogis have known for thousands of years that it’s the KIND OF sleep and rest you get that matters – you need DEEP rest to recharge. But most of us never get there because the habits and rituals we have the 4 hours before we go to sleep don’t give us the space, time and rhythm we need to what’s called in feminine wisdom ‘DOWNSHIFT’.
Instead we run ourselves like cars that just keep revving up, or downshift just one gear and then upshift again, so by the time we hit the hay, we spend hours downshifting and detoxing when we need to be recharging & restoring.
In this Feminine Power Time, Christine Arylo shares a new way to think about how you wind down your day – Daily Downshifting. Rather than waiting to an hour before bed, Arylo shares the 3 phases of daily downshifting, which begin hours before bedtime, by signaling to your body and mind that it’s time to start winding down work to nourish your body. And after you nourish your body, there is another downshift, by disconnecting from technology and the outside world and being mindful of what you put into your body, mind, and heart in these precious hours. And then an hour before bed, you downshift again (with some rituals that set you up for amazing rest and recharge, you’ll love these!)
